Late one night when Adrian is nineteen, he risks climbing up into the green tower that operates the railway bridge spanning Vancouver’s Burrard Inlet. There, he encounters a mysterious naked woman who will haunt him for years to come.

A decade later, he catches his wrist on a fish hook while swimming at a Vancouver beach, and he meets Mandy. Soon, Adrian’s dreams of family bliss turn to nightmares. Mandy’s destructive nature is increasingly revealed, yet Adrian can’t seem to resist her.

Why is Mandy’s ex-boyfriend stalking him? Who is leaving the cigarette burn marks he keeps finding? And the question that haunts Adrian most of all: who is really in control of his fate?

An undercurrent of violence and danger flows beneath the story, threatening to pull Adrian down out of his innocent schoolteacher’s existence into dark and murky depths.
